hello friends...
we are using turbo charges in buses and in lorry and trucks why can't we use turbo charger in bikes it use to increase efficiency know ??

    A turbocharger works with the pressure and velocity of exhaust gases.In a two-wheeler the exhaust gases produced is not enough to efficiently run a turbocharger.

    A supercharger maybe an option..

    Find the difference between a turbocharger and supercharger.

    Friends..
    Already some turbo charged bikes are available..Honda made a production turbo bike available to the public - CX500T

    Yamaha made a production turbo bike - XJ650 TURBO

    Turbocharger for a 100cc motorcycle is not feasible. A supercharger can be added but production cost will be high.

    Just like i said the 100cc engine does not develop exhaust gases with enough pressure and velocity so that we can use it run a turbine.

    Supercharger takes its drive from engine crankshaft itself, this can be used but the overall cost of producing such a engine will be high.The turbine blades is costly to manufacture, the engine must have fuel injection system to optimize its performance.A powerfull engine means the transmission system should be changed ,so the cost of the product will higher.
